Progress Through Unity

2018 Safety Eye-wear Program

To All,

All NJ TRANSIT Rail employees are eligible for two pairs (one clear pair and one tinted pair, or two clear pairs) of prescription safety eyewear during the calendar year January 1st through December 31st 2018. As you may know, U.S. Safety was bought by Essilor and this company now provides us with prescription safety eyewear. The procedures are the same as in the past. Take your new form (which is attached) with your name, phone number, employee number and work location to one of the 23 approved eye care providers. Your glasses will arrive back to your provider in 2-3 weeks. Essilor will not provide on-site opticians.

I know 2018 has been challenging and frustrating regarding prescription eyewear. I have been assured by Essilor that all issues have been resolved. Please let me know as soon as possible if there are issues that I am not aware of. Please share this information with anyone who does not have e-mail and keep the forms at your location.

Thank you for your patience.
